B-LINE SB1001BYZ – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is a yellow zinc U-bolt OK to use outdoors or in a damp electrical room?
Yellow zinc chromate over steel is a plated finish meant for dry indoor and sheltered service. It gives better corrosion resistance than plain steel, but for exterior, wash-down or coastal work you want hot-dip galvanized or stainless hardware instead. In a conditioned data room, telecom closet or indoor rack run, the yellow zinc finish on the SB1001BYZ is the normal choice.
2) What is this B-Line U-bolt actually used for on an open frame rack?
It is a clamping fastener for the Eaton B-Line open frame rack system, used to strap conduit, pipe or cable bundles to rack framing and channel. The U shape wraps the run and the two threaded legs pass through a hole pattern or fitting, where 1/2-13 nuts draw it tight. It is not a rack mounting screw and will not take the place of the 12-24 or 10-32 hardware that holds equipment to rack rails.
3) Which B-Line part number do I reorder to match the yellow zinc U-bolts already on my racks?
Ask for Eaton B-Line SB1001BYZ. The BYZ suffix is the yellow zinc chromate version, so it matches existing yellow-plated hardware on the run. If the bolts already in place are silver or dull grey they are a different plating and the finish will not match, even though the 1/2-13 thread would still fit.
4) Is the B-Line SB1001BYZ U-bolt UL listed or carry a certification?
No certification applies to the SB1001BYZ. It is a plain steel structural fastener, not a listed electrical component, so specify it on the strength and finish (steel, yellow zinc chromate, 1/2-13) rather than on a listing mark. If your job spec demands a listed support component, that requirement sits with the strut or hanger assembly, not with the U-bolt.
